Sachin Tendulkar's blood used to prepare special edition of his memoirs

"Worship of cricket's "little master", Sachin Tendulkar, is set to cross a new boundary, as a luxury book publisher brings out a special edition of his autobiography made with the batsman's blood. Only for the most dedicated of fans, the "blood edition" of the Tendulkar Opus, which also includes unpublished family pictures and Tendulkar's thoughts about his career, weighs 37kg, measures half a metre square and stretches to 852 pages edged in gold leaf, costing $75,000 (GBP49,000). Out next February, only 10 copies are being printed and they have all already been pre-ordered" - Guardian
